The allegation that Beulah Wheeler married Jonathan Wheeler, son of Abijah and Tabitha (Warren) Wheeler, and died 12 Jun 1820, Templeton, MA, aged 79 years, seems to be false. It is true that Jonathan Wheeler and wife Beulah had the following children, all recorded in Templeton: Salla, Bulah, Daniel, Polla, Abijah, Tabatha, John Fisk, Persis, Rebeckah, and Joseph, born between 1767 and 1786. The marriage of Jonathan Wheeler and Beulah Fisk is recorded 3 Apr 1766, Weston, MA. Given the name of son John Fisk Wheeler, it seems that Jonathan Wheeler's wife was not Beulah Wheeler, but Beulah Fisk, daughter of John and Sarah (Childs) Fisk, baptized 25 Jul 1742, Waltham, MA.
